Once you have clicked on "Add", the device is added to the project and is indicated as
unavailable. You must now restart or reset the MMS. Following a restart, the MMS
resends the BootP requests and receives the corresponding BootP reply from the Factory
Manager. Once the boot process has been completed the MMS is indicated as available.
4.1.3 Configuration and Diagnostics
Numerous options for configuring and diagnosing the MMS can be found in the "Device"
menu under "Properties".

Figure 4-3 "General" menu
Here you can check or modify device names and types as well as IP parameters.
Make sure that the assignment of IP parameters via BootP is also activated.
If the MMS is still indicated as "unavailable", check your network card settings. Please
note that both devices must be located in the same network/subnetwork. If the Factory
Manager receives the BootP requests this does not mean that the devices are located in
the same subnetwork, as the BootP requests are sent as a broadcast beyond
subnetwork boundaries.
